Former "Queer as Folk" star Gale Harold, who most recently guest starred on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy" and fronted FOX's failed abduction thriller "Vanished" in the fall of 2006, joins "Desperate Housewives" in the May 18 finale. Unfortunately, he won't be playing Andrew Van De Kamp's new sugar daddy. Bummer.

According to a TV Guide report, Harold will play a "quick-witted, charming and buttoned-down suburbanite" along the lines of a young Jack Lemmon who "could return next season in a recurring capacity."

Last week, Kristin of E!Online wrote that "we'll meet a new character by the name of Ken in the finale. He'll initially come off as the perfect, straight-laced husband type. However, he'll have something to do with next year's big mystery."

According to casting sides, in the second half of the May 18 finale (simply titled "Free"), Ken approaches his overprotective wife Linda standing in the schoolyard, leaning against a play structure, watching their son MJ.

Ken was called to the scene by the school principal to calm Linda down and get her to go home. Linda is filled with fear on her son's first day of school, but Ken's loving and confident manner gives her the strength to let her son out of her sight.

Would the mystery have something to do with why Linda became so overprotective? Or, if the show shifts five years into the future - as it has been rumored - will we find this family in a very different situation and wonder how they got there?

In any event, I applaud the casting of Gale Harold who has a very loyal fanbase and may bring additional viewers to Wisteria Lane, but I also cautiously hope DH doesn't turn into "Lost" laced with flashbacks of the 5 years gone by.posted by ( a )

Mrs. Josh Duhamel, as some of you may already know, is doing the theme song to the new Sex and the City movie. It's called "Labels of Love," and as one can expect from Fergalicious, it's a bump-and-grind ode to materialism (Cartier, Fendi and Gucci all get shout-outs). Some of the sax from the original theme song is sampled here. Do we likey? Send us your thoughts.Quick! Before YouTube decides to pull it, listen here!

The gang from High School Musical 3 are hard at work in Utah and its looks like they are all having a great time. Zac Efron shows off his hot body with great muscle definition topless and in his basketball outfit.

Miley Cyrus Topless Pictures For Vanity FairThe move has sparked outrage among parents."Parents should be extremely concerned," Lin Burress of marriage and parenting blog, Telling It Like It Is said in an interview to New York Times. "Very young girls look up to Miley Cyrus as a role model."A Disney spokeswoman, Patti McTeague, faulted Vanity Fair for the photo. "Unfortunately, as the article suggests, a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines," she said.The article, written by Bruce Handy, quotes Ms. Cyrus as saying, "Annie took, like, a beautiful shot, and I thought it was really cool. That’s what she wanted me to do, and you can’t say no to Annie." She also said of the photo, "I think it’s really artsy. It wasn’t in a skanky way."Ms. Cyrus had a different view in a prepared statement released on Sunday:"I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be ‘artistic’ and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed. I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about."Beth Kseniak, a spokeswoman for both Vanity Fair magazine and Ms. Leibovitz said, "Miley’s parents and/or minders were on the set all day. Since the photo was taken digitally, they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley."

According to an official ABC press release, Lynette finds out who was responsible for starting the fire at Rick's restaurant, Bree gives Orson an ultimatum and Susan reconnects with her ex-husband, Karl (guest star Richard Burgi, pictured above with Teri Hatcher).

Little Kayla (Rachel Fox) will be revealed as the mastermind behind the fire at Rick's restaurant. Lynette takes her to see a psychiatrist, after it is revealed she manipulated her brothers into setting the fire (I can't imagine those little devils being entirely innocent, though).

Obviously, the boys were scared by the sight of their parents fighting (in last Sunday's episode). But since the obvious first suspect was her father Tom, the only member of the Scavo family she appeared to actually care about, what was Kayla trying to accomplish?

Susan will bump into Karl at a Lamaze class, where hex ex-husband comes with his pregnant girlfriend.Susan is embarrassed because of her old clothes and Mike not being by her side (he is being recognized for staying off drugs for 30 days). She makes sure Mike accompanies her to the next class dressed to the nines.As I mentioned in the earlier post, Justine Bateman ("Family Ties") will guest star in the episode as part of Gabrielle's storyline.Gary Cole returns as Katherine Mayfair's ex-husband.

Those pathetic losers from the Parents Television Council who don't seem to know how to use their remote controls are on the warpath again, this time taking issue with "sexually suggestive photo showing a teenage boy kissing a girl’s cleavage" as part of CW's "Gossip Girl" current print campaign. OMFG! How shocking.

The wingnuts have recently filed "indecency" complaints over a partially blurred image of a nude model on "America's Top Model," a scene of a man groping woman's breasts on "My Mame Is Earl" and Pfizer's Viagra ads.

In a statement regarding "Gossip Girl," the PTC says: "The Parents Television Council deplores the CW’s deliberate use of profanity and sexual imagery to exploit and further corrupt young viewers, and has warned its members about the show and the new ad campaign."

"Gossip Girl" returned last Monday with second-best ever ratings in target demos. I certainly hope PTC's wretched efforts will add even more eyeballs to the show as many right wing campaigns of this kind are known to spark controversy with boomerang results.posted by ( s )

You may have heard Kate Walsh, whose new medical series "Private Practice" won't be coming back before September, is making a guest appearance on the parent series "Grey's Anatomy" May 1. ABC has now released images of Dr. Addison Montgomery back at Seattle Grace, for one episode only.

The reason Addison returns to Seattle Grace is to perform a groundbreaking surgery. In the process, she meets all of her former co-workers, husbands and lovers, and is taken aback by all of the changes in their lives. Not that she didn't have a turbulent fall in her Santa Monica co-op herself.

The episode titled "Piece of My Heart" (2nd of 6 post-strike episodes) airs May 1. "Grey's Anatomy" returns next Thursday, April 24. The 2-hour season finale airs May 22.

This shot really suits a french "Elle" cover. this is definitely my favorite Madonna Elle 2008 cover so far , she's in such great shape, i'll bet women (literally) half her age would kill for a body like that.

The first images taken from the May 8 episode of "Ugly Betty" featuring special guest star Eddie Cibrian ("Dirty Sexy Money," "Samantha Who") have now been released. Check out Eddie the Dimples (who plays Justin's PE teacher on the show) getting a haircut from his student's mother, Her Sassy Self Ms. Hilda Suarez.

***SPOILERS***

: Betty switches gears with rival Charlie (guest star Jayma Mays) and tries to befriend her by throwing a baby shower, a party that no one will ever forget.

"Smallville" hunk Tom Welling, whom we have not seen in any official photo shoot for his CW drama this season, appears in the May edition of Vogue magazine playing a Clark Kent-like "cunning newspaper editor."

Here it is, the Rishi Idnani Interview!!! – from “dosas” to “Zoolander” … we discuss the elements that make up the “Next Big Thing”!

F::You've said "I am mostly Indian and proud of it!" so do you like Indian food, if yes any favorites?R::I am mostly Indian. However, I am a mut lol. I have some ancestral roots from Persian and Italy. Yes, I love Indian food. From the tandoori chicken and lamb to the mithai (Indian desserts) to the dosa and idilis, I eat them all and do not deprive myself from them. I also have an obsession with Italian food and Japanese hibachi and sushi.

F::Which University do you go to and what's your major? What made you choose it and which comes easier modeling or your studies?R::I am currently majoring in business (primarily hotel and lodging management) at New York University. I am currently a sophomore and plan to graduate by 2010. Modeling is more of a passion, and I choose it over my studies (skipping a class here or there) almost on a daily basis.

F::What's one thing you love about New York ?R::I love everything about New York. It's undoubtedly the best and most important city in the world. The food and the nightlife make me never want to leave New York.

F::You're a model, you're into sports, and you have a challenging major, what keeps you going? What drives you?R::From the castings to the shoots to the classroom and ultimately to spending time with family and friends, I found that my discipline and motivation to always want more have driven me to my success and helped me manage my time.

F::How do your friends and colleagues react to your modeling career?R::Of course, after watching Ben Stiller's Zoolander, my friends have found it necessary to humor my choice of a career whenever they get the opportunity with constant references to the movie. All in all, my family and friends have been very supportive and respectful of my modeling career.

F::Have you learned anything from the modeling industry?R::There is a lot of rejection in the modeling industry. If you do not have the tough skin for it, I suggest you do not quit your day job.

F::What to you normally wear? Is casual or smart your style? What's one piece of clothing you cant live with out?R::In the morning, I find myself usually wearing the same articles of clothing I wore the night before more or less. During the day, whether at class or out and about, I am usually a fitted jeans and t-shirt type of guy unless the occasion arises where I have to be all dressed up. I cannot live, however, without my ripped navy colored True Religion jeans that I have had for 3 years and still fit perfectly.

F::Do you keep track of the fashion industry? If yes, what's your favorite men's wear brand?R::My favorite men's wear brand has to be Calvin Klein. It's designed sexy yet very neutral with its designs. From the underwear to their jeans, Calvin Klein makes up a considerable part of my wardrobe.

F::Where do you like to hang out ?R::I love traveling to the beach. I eventually want to visit every major coast in the world.

F::"Boxers or briefs or ... ???" – we had to ask we received 43 emails asking that very question!R::I am usually a boxers type of guy. Something with an alluring design or colour. But if I see a pair of comfortable boxer briefs, I wouldn't shy away from them.

F::Thank you once again for this interview, what are your thoughts of “fetch!”?
